In summary ...

Quinn, a 2 star hardly got on the field

Blair, a 4 star, surprisingly hardly saw the field

Pearson, a 3 star became pretty productive

Kamara, a 4 star, became highly productive

... Thus, Jones juco recruiting sucked.

Earth shaking discovery there my friend.

In Jones’s first class, a JUCO TE by the name of Woody Quinn was brought in as a part of the first recruiting class. Some thought he’d be a bust because of his 2-star ranking. Others looked to other success stories like Antonio Gates and other NFL players. I just looked at the staff’s history.

He turned out to be pretty much a bust. Then the #1 JUCO OT Dontavious Blair never saw the field, even with a 4-Star rating. While Vonn Pearson was productive while healthy, most of the JUCOs of the Jones era were busts to journeymen. That, regardless of rating. Oh, and they almost screwed up Kamara. How?!?

Let’s hope this staff does better with JUCO players.

Butch Jones not knowing how to use Kamara, kinda explains all the problems.:unsure::no:

Pearson was a 4*
Kamara was a 5*

I realty don't think it's fair to call guys like Kamara and Cam juco recruits. They were high level high schools recruits that bounced at high level programs
Because of issues.

That's the kind of juco kid we need to recruit IMO

We took Quinn over a JC All American who ended up at Vandy. Can't believe Jones was such an idiot to pass on Brandon Vandenberg.

Should be easier to evaluate a plyer in Juco than it is in High School the competition is better.

Should have used blue font but Butch did pass him based on some issues he had in JC. It later came out that Franklin hid some of those things to get him admitted to Vandy.

I thought so. He was one of the players involved in the rape case, too.
